[Verse 1]
[C]Heaven doesn't settle with the ser[Csus2]ver
[C]The cli[F]cks don't always corres[Gsus4]pond
to the [C]numbers on the dial
She's open to discuss a little
[Csus2]further[D][Csus2]
But there's [F]something insin
[G]cere inside [C]her smile

[Verse 2]
We were [C]fighting about how I [D]had
financed the foundation
I was [F]tryna bring up [G]any other top[C]ic
[Csus2]Than how I'm driving 'round and drop
[C]ping [D]off a certain sort of package
To [F]supplement my [G]thin
and dismal pro[C]spects
[Csus2]The[C][Csus2]

[Verse 3]
[D]meds they gave
her distant eyes
The [Em]win dowsills were filled with [C]flies
[G]She didn't leave the house
there for a long [C]time
[Csus2]The storm rol[C]led in so slowly[Csus2]
[D]The destruction became boring
[F]The story of the year [G]we fell behind
[C][Csus2]

[Csus2][F][Gsus4][C]

[Verse 4]
I was [F]a seeker
I was a scout
Was a believer
Before all the doubt
Don't blame the [C]city
I blame the deceivers
The lights in the barrooms
Can burn through good people

[Verse 5]
I [F]was a plaything
I was a pawn
I couldn't believe
How much they all wanted
So much con[C]sumption
They all wanted something
[G]

[Verse 6]
[C]Devil makes his money on [D]the small moves
[F]All at once has [G]never been [C]his style
She said if we can hustle hard [D]enough I think
we'll probably make it
But there was [F]something
[G]insincere inside her [C]smile

[Verse 7]
[Dm]Slide into the shortest view
We could [Em]maybe take like one or two
[G]But stay here in the game,
I think [C]you'll find
You start throwing [D]in to cover[C]age
Tryna [D]force a low percentage
To [F]make up for [Gsus4]the way you fell behind

[Verse 8]
[C]That's the sto[F]ry of
[G]the year we fell behind
[C]That's the[F] story of the year we
fell [Gsus4]behind[G][C][G][F]
That's the [Gsus4]story of
the year we [C]fell [F]behind
The [Gsus4]story of the[F] year
we fell be[C]hind[G][F]
That's [Gsus4]the story of the year
we [C]fell [F]behind
The [Gsus4]story of the year we
[C]fell [G]behind[F][Gsus4]
[F]That's the[C] story of the year we fell behind
[F]The[C] story of the year we fell behin[F]d
